Everyone knows how beautiful and important flowers could be as a gift for somebody or just to decorate your home for yourself. Flowers will bring coziness and warmth to your sweet home. If you are thinking about how to make your own flower bouquet that will fit the interior of your house, don’t worry, Art Flowers LA will lead you through the process where you could be a florist all by yourself, even if you don’t have the experience.
First of all, you need to prepare all the needs that help you make floral arrangements: scissors to cut the stems, a vase for your creation, water to keep the blooms alive, flower food to prolong the life of the bouquet, and your favorite main flowers, greenery, and filler flowers.
Thing needed to make a bouquet
The next step is to prepare the flowers and greenery. Remember, it is important to remove all the leaves from the bottom stems that could be inside the water vase because they can produce bacteria that will kill the flowers.
Cutting the leaves
Then, take a vase and fill it up halfway with room temperature water. Don’t forget to put the flower food inside and stir the mix until it’s dissolved.
Flowers and vase with water
After preparing the flowers and filling the vase with water, cut the stems to the length that you prefer and what you think best looking for the vase you have, just make sure to cut them at an angle – 45 degrees and put them in a vase.
Cutting the stems
The most important rule of how to make flower arrangements in a vase is using the largest and most beautiful flowers at first, and spreading them around in different heights and angles in a criss-cross way to make a base. After that, take your filler flowers that are usually smaller than your main blooms and put them around the arrangement to support the larger ones. Then, fill in all of the holes in the arrangement with greens and greenery. Doing this will help you make the right shape of the bouquet if it is needed.
Use the largest and most beautiful flowers
Now your beauty is ready to add warmth to your home. Do not forget to change the water every two to three days, cut stems at the right angle, and feed flowers with flower food. Enjoy your very own flower bouquet in a vase.
Art Flowers LA also has some recommendations for choosing the vase and flowers for your arrangement. Always pick a vase first and after that, the flowers for it, let us explain why.
A small vase is the easiest way to do flower arrangements. Make your choice of bright main flowers and a neutral color of filler flowers; make it playful and interesting. You don’t even need greenery for the small flower bouquet.
Flowers in medium size vase
A medium vase is the perfect way to create your beauty. You have a lot of freedom! You can pick colorful flowers as main ones and also neutral or supportive colors for secondary ones. Do not forget to play with greens to fill in the empty spots and make a clear shape for your bouquet.
For the large or tall vases, you need to pick long, heavy flowers with sturdy stems. For colors of the flowers use the same rules as above.
